People are assholes.
Everyone thinks they are exempt from waiting in the line up. We have signs posted, it doesn’t help. I’m in a 200 plus patient a day lab, short staffed. It’s been me and just one other person and I have to deal with a 2 hr line up. Everyone has to be screened, can’t answer simple questions. Swarm me as soon as I walk out the door. I’ve taken to yelling at people to get back into the line or else I won’t help them. Then they expect me to listen to their 10 mins story that I can sum up in 6 words. “So Your doctor faxed your paperwork” Such a waste of time.
We’ve had to call the police more then once. They are smashing on the windows.
Then when I tried to get back into the building they grabbed my shirt from behind and ended up ripping the PPE Down my back.
I feel like I’m dealing with a zombie apocalypse and the patients are the zombies. All you see are these blobs waving their hands in front of your face. Seriously it’s like out of the movies or something.
No, none of these people have Covid per say. That’s not why they coming. Fatigue. That seems to be the diagnoses of the season. (My regulars are not doing this, not my transplant, cancer, diabetic, or blood thinner patients)
I’m just bitching because I’m upset. People are now putting their hands on me....and it feels very threatening.

Welcome to 'life', the way it is now, unfortunately
People are assholes, and they don't give a shit, unless it's about themselves, and/or that device that's stuck to their face 24/7, hey, its 2020, but just imagine another 10 years from now, lol, were fuckin doomed

There are signs. But I am not allowed to put up hand written signs....we have anyway for simplicity.
There is a queuing system but it really sucks and the website isn’t clear with instructions. It causing more problems, it makes everyone think they have appointments when in fact they are a drop in. This has been the source of agreessiin. The queuing system always gives current wait time, and not the wait time for their sign in. If they wait in there cars there is no way us to know they have arrived.
It’s a system I’m fighting. It’s my companies responsibly to manage this with the proper tools and protocols. It wouldn’t be so bad if they hired people to manage the line from the beginning but they are so slow on the ball. Not completely their fault. No one wants to work right now,.
I feel better after writing this.
Mobs of people act like animals.

Covid is going to take out a lot of seniors who do not wear their hearing aid. They get right up in each other’s face and pull their mask away from their face so they can talk and hear each other in the line up. The conversation going on was about how careful they were. They are yelling at each other 1 foot away.
Sometimes I take a breather and just watch people for a second. It’s surreal. Thinking “yeah, this is who it’s happens”
